"A Man Party?. It 's Fathers Day, and I get to pick where we get to eat. (Woo! Hoo! I want Chinese! Which everybody loves, although I think they 'd really rather have Thai (which I normally like better as well, but I was really Jones 'en for some Egg Foo Young . But ever faithful, Hurray , is the chorus from the masses known as my family, so we all piled in the truck and came to Aw Dang, which I had been wanting to try for a while. They had a buffet, which I guess is a weekend regularity, but like I said, I was wanting Egg Foo Young, and I really wanted to get a feel for the menu. And this one didn 't disappoint. All the traditional Chinese I 'd come to know and love was on here. General So 's, Lo Mein, Chow Mein, Chop Suey, Happy Family, on and on finally a full blown Chinese menu. Ah, memories of San Francisco. The family ate buffet, but I ordered my requisite Egg Foo Young, and everyone enjoyed every bite. Another pleasant surprise was the wines. They didn 't have a lot of choices, but what they did have was wines I was familiar with and could easily enjoy with my meal. And at $5.00 a glass, very affordable. Service was bright and friendly, although it started off a little rough as our waitress was genuinely surprised that I didn 't want buffett. But she recovered gracefully enough, and the evening continued without incident. And while I know that Aw Dang is tongue in cheek in nature, I believe it can be loosely translated (phonetically to mean A Man Party in Mandarin Chinese. And I believe Aw Dang is as good a place as any for this worthy purpose. (I think the ladies will love it just as much, though!!!"

"Don't judge a book. Sely's is a very surprising restaurant a bright pink metal building, which is very inconceivable on the outside with simple fittings and furniture on the inside. The TV on the wall typically plays univision or whatever football game the workers are rooted. The low prices on the menu would you believe that the food will run very the mill typical San Antonio Mexican. But don't judge a book. The food here is definitely not gourmet, but it is also not cheap Mexican, although it is very cheap. It is mostly homemade, tasteful and correspondingly spicy with a style that, in my opinion, is somewhat closer to TexMex as an authentic mex. If you choose one of their daily specialties (on Friday the special is two cheese enchiladas, two puffy tacos, rice and beans), you will pay about $5.99 and you will get enough food for two meals. I always take half of me for lunch the next day. Perhaps the best value of any restaurant in San Antonio area. Tortillas and chips are homemade and the chips are usually freshly fried, a little on the crispy side, with all the fun yellow, orange and green colors the children love to eat. I'm not a big fan of her red salsa, although there's really nothing wrong with it. The verde salsa is excellent (and hot), but you need to ask for it. On the scale of more and more than you expected, this restaurant is a first-class establishment. Nevertheless, I want to see some better lighting inside and they need to do something with the decor to make it more inviting, perhaps on an English-speaking TV show occassionally. But my complaints are very low, Sely's definitely earned a high rating."

"Horrible place. I like to give places at least the benefit of the doubt but this place was on another low level. I rarely post reviews anywhere but I feel I have to on this place to help somebody out. My waitress was on the phone when she saw us sit down... so we heard her tell whoever she was talking to to hold on while she took our drink order (phone still on the other hand). The drinks were bad and the chips were stale. After a long wait for our food, the food came from another waitress who brought three plates with her only using her hands. So she carried two plates with one hand and one with the other which normally wouldn 't have been a problem except this time alot of my food got stuck to the underside of the first plate that was lodged on top of my plate with her hand. So a good portion of my asada and sour cream was peeled off and globbed on the table as she put the plates down. It was really obvious that she saw it and said nothing. We took the high road and continued our meal. The food was not good at all. They have huge signs saying homemade tortillas but those tasted like a very cheap store bought brand. The cheese enchiladas were not good at all.... who messes up cheese enchiladas?? The asada was dry, the barbacoa had an after taste, the rice was flavorless, and the beans tasted like beans from a can. The orginal waitress was sitting at the table next to us laughing and giggling loud with another employee. I don 't know if they were on break but it lasted the our entire meal. And no it was not packed at all (there was two other tables occupied only). We had no drink refill request(s) till we asked for the check and the extra charges (for to go cups and plates) surprised me. I normally like to look for the good in a place and give it at least 2 different attempts before I disregard it as a restaurant I would come back to, but this one really did not have 1 good thing I could say. My 13 year old son and I were both very unhappy with this place. Save yourself the time and frustration and do not go to this restaurant!!! The food gave me stomach problems after.... I will NOT be going back."
